[SOLVED] How to increase the max character length in comment body?

The function ValidateLength($Value, $Field) compares a posted comment body vs. maximum length of characters.

Where can I modify this length? I didn't find anything in config.php nor I wasn't able to locate the value in the code.

  • It would seem that function assign DB field length to max value. No config.
    So I think all you need to do is change DB field length.

    Please correct me if I'm wrong.

    I figured out there is a setting for that in the Admin-menu under "Spam".

    There was an issue initially I guess, because it said "8000 characters", but this was not the effective maximum possible. I just hit the save button again and now the value is correctly verified.
